IOS 7 Beta Screen Frozen URGENT?

I currently have the iOS 7 Beta 2 for iPhone 5. But something happened and now my screen is frozen on the Lock Screen and I have a passcode. Well actually its the "touch" part of the screen because the time and battery does change. All the buttons do work, but siri doesn't work. And my battery is at 100%. I'm afraid to downgrade to iOS 6 because I'm afraid that the screen will still be frozen. Would it still be frozen? What should I do?

My iPhone 4 never connects to wireless?

Can I have charges pressed against me?

My husband's employer does a lot of illegal activity. Stealing money, not paying taxes, fraud at the bank. My husband has not been employed there since June and has been unsuccessfully trying to get his iphone billing address changed to our address. My husband purchased the iphone about a year ago. His employer agreed to pay the payment about four months ago. I believe he made 3 payments. When my husband was let go, he let the company know that the phone was to be changed so that he could make payments. Since he was let go he has been working for my company, which is in the same field as his employer's company. His previous employer found out yesterday, and decided to have his phone turned off and a pre paid paid phone sent to him in order to get my husband's business contacts. Today he called our home and I went off. I threatened to report him for all of his illegal activity. I used profanity. Can he press charges against me?

Added (1). My husband never signed a no compete clause. His ex employer can take his phone even if my husband bought the phone over a year ago? His employer only made 2 or 3 payments. Most of which were late, resulting in VZW threatening to shut the phone off. We found out about his ex-employers illegal activity right before my husband quit, which is why he quit. Also, he was not being paid. His employer owed him $2, 000.

I don't really care what illegal activity this man does. I would just like him to leave us alone, which is why I threatened him. I didn't mean to use profanity, but all I saw was red when he called our home.
